The moment you uploaded pictures on Facebook, you started Cloud Computing

We often hear statements like, we are moving to the Cloud, In
the Cloud, Planning for Cloud, Cloud..Cloud…Cloud. So what is this cloud?

Does it mean a person has to work from a mountain with a
computer along with a moving cloud? And what happens if it rains? Is your data
going to be stored somewhere so far, maybe on a different planet? This might
seem funny to you but questions like these are frequently asked concerning the
cloud.

Cloud sounds like magic, but it’s really not. It’s quite
simple and easy. It’s the fastest changing technology shaping the economy. To
make it simple, cloud is a technology where you can store and access your data
from anywhere using the internet. Making life simpler and more accessible.

For example - unknowingly, people all over the globe are
already using cloud computing by uploading pictures on Facebook, OneDrive,
Picasa or Flickr etc., which can be accessed at any given time and are secured
by the trusted service provider. As soon as a photo is uploaded, it lives in
the cloud and can be accessed from anywhere around the world using the
internet. From a laptop, desktop, phone or any other device.

The global cloud computing market is expected to grow at 30%
CAGR reaching $270 billion by 2020 according to the Latest researchreports which
covers cloud computing products, technologies and services. It’s cost
effective and can also reduce the stress on administrating hardware and
software services.

Companies aim to be efficient and profitable. Business
applications which are usually very expensive are forced to enter into a
universe of complexity. With so much complexity and data flooding in, they
require a Data Center with maximum security, storage, cooling & power. It
should also include staging, testing, production, as well as fail over and
disaster recovery features. Instead of purchasing applications they can be
hosted in a shared environment and can be accessible just like any other utility
service.

With Cloud, you have a gold mine waiting to be explored for
new business streamlines and modules. You just need to know how and when.
